Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on amenity, having regard to the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (England) Regulations 2007

What decided it

The large size and prominent positioning of the advertising inset would cause significant harm to amenity and the character and appearance of the conservation area, which would not be outweighed by the modest amenity benefits of the decorative shroud or the appellant's financial arguments regarding building restoration.
